IPL Photofacials
IPL, also known as Intense Pulsed Light or Photofacial, is a well-known and time-tested broad band light device. IPL delivers a bright blast of light at very high energy levels through a handpiece. IPL photofacials work best for brown spots (due to sun or aging) and unwanted blood vessels – such as spider veins or rosacea on the face. IPL photofacials can also be used on the neck, chest and hands.
Best of all, IPL has little to no downtime or recovery. Treatments are quick and easy, with no preparation or numbing required. You will feel a series of slight “rubber band snap” sensations during the treatment, which most people find very tolerable.
You can return to normal activities immediately following the IPL photofacial procedure. After treatment in our Broomfield, CO office, some temporary darkening of the brown spots and vessels is seen. Brown spots rise to the surface and peel off, leaving behind your skin’s natural, even color.
We use the BBL (broadband light) device from Sciton. BBL is the absolute best, next generation of phototherapy – improving pigment, redness, and overall skin quality anywhere on the body. We can minimize natural signs of aging, sun damage, acne, and even more! Best results are achieved with a series of three treatments.
